What is a good free Mac OS X GUI RAR archive program?

Hi.

I tried to get WinRAR for Mac OS X v10.5.8 like for Windows, but that was a command line and my client doesn't know command line. He getting RAR attachments these days.

What's a good freeware WinRAR program for Mac OS X?

Thank you in advance. 🙂

TheUnarchiver or UnRARX should do the trick - VersionTracker or MacUpdate.


TheUnarchiver was good. Thanks! 🙂 It was confusing at first because I kept opening it and it had settings. Then, I realized I needed open file archives for it to work correctly. Heh. I unchecked the default archive formats like HQX, ZIP, etc. since Mac OS X's Finder already handles that. I also wanted non-default file archives opened by TheUnArchiver. In fact, is there a list of defaults that Finder can open without any third parties?

Too bad it doesn't compress files. I think MacOS X has its own internal zip compressor though, so that should be enough
